More layoffs June 24
Heard from a few colleagues in the Americas this morning that they got notice
How long do we have?
What do you think, how long do we have before severance is no longer an option? It has been shrinking through the years, so much so that I’m certain at some point DXC will simply decide to no longer provide it for people they are laying off. If I’m... — read more

Still no news on VRs in UK
Into the 3rd week of waiting and still no news. I heard delay is due to pensions or something? I wish they would at least send a mail to give us a timeframe. If its a resource issue, I would happily volunteer my services to help them! This is DXC at... — read more
Unite the union (Chesterfield staff).... don’t bother
As someone already posted, Chesterfield people... do not waste £14 a month signing up to the union. They are a mostly waste of time and money. Perhaps the only benefit they can offer you is if you have issues at work then having a union representing... — read more
HCL to buy DXC
Completely. Is there any basis for this rumor (heard it in the office). I do not know much about them.

What is DXC trying to do?
No one seems to understand what is going on with DXC. Massive head cutting all to try to lower costs; however it is affecting delivery to clients and for new contracts, they can't be staffed. How can a business run like that? In a services industry... — read more

My experience - if 'reacting' requires any effort or budget spend there will be no action. Your thoughts?
DXC outsourcing aso's
Caramba!!!
